No clue where to post some stuff not necessarily team related but could be? Feel free to delete if this belongs somewhere else.



Maxx and Parsons would be nasty. I probably wouldn’t pay the price though.

Mayer is going to have a big year. Book it!!! He will eat because of the attention that teams HAVE to give BB. He will also be vital to our blocking (I was also very impressed how good he was and he got HUGE).

We are going to run a lot of 12 personnel sets, so Mayer is going to be important.

My three are Raiders, SF Giants, and the Sacramento Kings. Ugh. At least the Giants won three World Series in five years. That was quite a relief as I had been waiting since 1962, when I was 11 and really getting into baseball. So I waited 48 years for a championship. Hey, the Raiders last championship was 1984 so that was 42 years ago. That is getting to be a long, painful wait also.

CBS has a new story-- top 12 new QB and head coach combos. Full list linked to below. The put the Raiders at #4:

4. Raiders | QB: Fernando Mendoza* | Coach: Klint Kubiak*
Kirk Cousins is the favorite to begin the season under center, but given his performance over the last couple of years, it is a comfortable assumption that Mendoza will be in the lineup before too long. He's basically a quarterbacking robot, if you believe what you saw on film at Indiana, and he's an excellent fit for Kubiak's offense, which is heavy on asking quarterbacks to do the exact things at which Mendoza was best during his time in college.

Oakland Clippers. Oakland soccer team. Oakland Oaks. ABA team featuring Rick Barry and Jerry Valecutnia( sp?) 3 pt specialist.
To X: seals were mostly San Francisco to me then left for Minnesota? Oaks of the PCL were done a year before I was born. Casey Stengal was their coach. My brothers went to their games in Emeryville.

Did attend Seals games tho. Cub Scoutmaster got us tickets for free. Went 3 or 4 times in some underground place in SF. Just remember walking downstairs from street level to get into the joint.
